## Abstract Many family‐based tests of linkage disequilibrium (LD) are based on counts of alleles rather than genotypes. However, allele‐based tests may not detect interactions among alleles at a single locus that are apparent when examining associations with genotypes. Family‐based tests of LD bas

## Abstract We provide a general purpose family‐based testing strategy for associating disease phenotypes with haplotypes when phase may be ambiguous and parental genotype data may be missing. These tests for linkage and association can be used in candidate gene studies with tightly linked markers.

## Abstract In family‐based association studies, quantitative traits are thought to provide higher statistical power than dichotomous traits. Consequently, it is standard practice to collect quantitative traits and to analyze them as such. However, in many situations, continuous measurements are mo
